He must have joined Infosys at 'on-campus' recruitment. Infosys and other companies might have visited his campus, he gave a sort of test and he was selected. Sometimes, once you pass an interview, you aren't allowed to try for other on-campus companies. So he was 'stuck' with Infosys. The other reason is that programming as a hobby during college isn't a thing in India. (This might have changed in recent years). So you only get a chance to really mature as a programmer in the first few years out of college. So when he was ready to move on from Infosys, he had matured, but still had the Infosys 'stigma'. And then it's really a numbers game. Infosys has hired millions in the past decade or two.
